Abstract

A sports device with a grip element (1, 2) forming a handle and with an elastane band (14) which is guided through the grip element (1, 2) in a guide (11) is described, the elastane band (14) on the one hand is connected to the grip element (1, 2) and on the other hand to a connecting device with which the elastane tape (14) can be connected to a shoe / foot. In order to create advantageous training conditions, it is proposed that the handle of the grip element (1, 2) be spanned on the front side by a finger protector (12), which has a support for guiding the elastane band (14) and a lock (3) for locking the elastane band ( 14).

Description

The invention relates to a piece of sports equipment with a grip element forming a grip and with an elastane band that is guided through the grip element in a guide, the elastane band being connected on the one hand to the grip element and on the other hand to a connecting device with which the elastane band is connected to a shoe / Foot is connectable.

Basically, this sports device is a handle that is provided with an elastane band. Similar to Nordic walking, the sports equipment is mainly used while walking. The elastane strap is fixed to the handle on one side and connected to the shoe / foot on the other side by means of a device. By moving the arms and feet while walking, the elastane band is alternately tensioned and relaxed, thus stressing and relieving the muscle regions in the arms and legs. The sports equipment can also be used while standing and lying down and serves as sports equipment for countless stretching and warm-up exercises for the whole body. There are almost no limits to the variety of applications and creativity of the athlete. The sports equipment is used in the same way as Nordic Walking, i.e. walking with variable loads on the muscle regions in the arms and legs, or in physiotherapy.

Such devices are for example from US 8 075 642 B1 and the US 2011 160 023 A1 known.

The invention is therefore based on the task of being able to advantageously adjust the stretch resistance of the elastane tape and to protect fingers and hand regions.

The invention achieves the stated problem in that the handle of the grip element is spanned on the front side by a finger protector which has a support for guiding the elastane band and a lock for locking the elastane band.

With the sports device according to the invention, a training effect can be achieved by means of the grip element and elastane tape, similar to Nordic walking. Exercises for arms, shoulders, back and many other stretching fitness and warm-up exercises can be performed. By moving the arms and feet while walking, the elastane band is alternately tensioned and relaxed, which loads and relieves the muscle regions in the arms and legs. The variety of uses and creativity of the athlete are almost unlimited. The fact that the handle of the grip element is spanned on the front side by a finger protector, i.e. with a kind of bracket or the like, which has a support for guiding the elastane band and a lock for locking the elastane band, ensures on the one hand that the stretch resistance of the elastane band is advantageously set and that fingers and hands are appropriately protected.

The grip element can be equipped with a coupling for additional devices and with a cover for the coupling, which can be pushed into a lock in the upper region of the grip element. These additional devices can, for example, be lamps, step counters, heart rate monitors or the like, which can be securely connected to the grip element via the coupling.

The grip element preferably has a belt clip on the side of the finger protector. This belt clip is clipped onto the finger protector or a fixed component thereof and is used to safely stow the grip element on a belt, waistband, trouser pocket or the like when not in use.

On the one hand, a fixing rod that engages in the locking device can be inserted into the elastane tape. The fixation rod is a pen with heads at both ends. The fixation rod is inserted into a loop of the elastane tape on the one hand and into one of the locks on the other. The elastane tape can have several such loops distributed over its length in order to be able to adjust the length of the elastane tape to suit a user. By selecting the lock, the user can then set different pre-tension levels during a training session and thus vary the elastane tape pre-tension accordingly.

The fixing rod is preferably designed such that it prevents the elastane band from slipping through the guide. This means that the guide rod is dimensioned in such a way that it cannot slip through the guide if the fixation rod should come loose from the lock during training. The fixation rod does not necessarily have to be locked in the lock. However, it should be ensured that the fixing rod is drawn into the locking device, which represents a detent or receptacle, under appropriate tensile forces.

The length of the elastane band running over the finger protector on the front of the grip element and thus its resistance to stretching can be adjusted in particular by means of the lock. For this purpose, two or more locks for adjusting the elastane band are provided, especially distributed over the finger protector on the front.

The connecting device connected to the elastane tape is preferably a clamp with an elastane tape holder, the elastane tape holder being cranked in particular from a clamping plane of the clamp. With the clamp, the connecting device can quickly be detachably attached to a shoe, in particular to a shoe waistband. It is advisable to provide additional security with a strap that connects the shoe and the connecting device, for example, in order to prevent the connecting device from being uncontrolled detached from the shoe during training. If the clamp is bent out of a clamping plane, that is to say bent away from the user's leg when the clamp is attached to a shoe, the band can be prevented from chafing on the leg.

The handle element can consist of two handle half-shells screwed together, which are connected by means of a centering rod or centering means serving as a centering device.

A slip-resistant insert made of gel or foam rubber can be inserted into the grip element.
